Absolutely watchable, as excepted. I love HGW's theme which he brought over from the first film. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJLxiCUF4KE&ab_channel=HarryGregson-Williams-Topic 25 years ago I would have bought the CD right away. I'm not there anymore, but I have a soft spot for HGW's material.    Posted:   Aug 26, 2023 - 3:26 PM     By:   Leeward90   (Member) I love HGW's theme which he brought over from the first film. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJLxiCUF4KE&ab_channel=HarryGregson-Williams-Topic It's good but, melodically, it sounds almost identical to his score for Spy Game?    Posted:   Aug 26, 2023 - 3:36 PM     By:   First Breath   (Member) Perhaps, I haven't seen/heard that one in years.    Posted:   Aug 26, 2023 - 4:37 PM     By:   Leeward90   (Member) Perhaps, I haven't seen/heard that one in years. Yeah, don't get me wrong, I'm a big HGW fan myself. It's just that melody sounds so familiar. Most of HGW's more tender themes do have a certain 'pattern'. Maybe it's that, I don't know.    Posted:   Aug 26, 2023 - 4:43 PM     By:   First Breath   (Member) I get what you say. There seem to be a deep melancholic and tender element in those themes. Speaks to the heart.    Posted:   Aug 27, 2023 - 3:45 AM     By:   Thor   (Member) Dig both of the EQUALIZER films and looking forward to the third and last, which premieres in just a few days. Haven't really explored the scores too much, though. I see that Marcelo Zarvos is doing the third one rather than HGW.    Posted:   Aug 27, 2023 - 4:43 AM     By:   First Breath   (Member) A bit surprising that HGW is not onboard. Zarvos has scored Denzel's last two films as director, so they clearly had a relationship though. I guess it may have been a scheduling conflict for HGW, maybe he did THE MEG 2 instead.    Posted:   Aug 27, 2023 - 10:39 AM     By:   Spymaster   (Member) HGW has been writing terriby unmemorable stuff lately. So I'm glad he's not on this. I'd still much rather have Stewart Copeland!!    Posted:   Aug 27, 2023 - 11:03 AM     By:   First Breath   (Member) Copeland more or less left scoring behind after 2006.    Posted:   Aug 27, 2023 - 11:28 AM     By:   SBD   (Member) HGW has been writing terriby unmemorable stuff lately. So I'm glad he's not on this. I'd still much rather have Stewart Copeland!! Who knows? Maybe 3 is finally the one where Copeland’s theme appears. A ringtone, a street busker, someone whistling it in the background. It is remarkable the things that people in the film business need explained to them.    Posted:   Aug 27, 2023 - 2:30 PM     By:   nuts_score   (Member) Is this a thread about The Equalizer 2 or The Equalizer 3?    Posted:   Aug 27, 2023 - 10:52 PM     By:   Randy Watson   (Member) A bit surprising that HGW is not onboard. Zarvos has scored Denzel's last two films as director, so they clearly had a relationship though. I guess it may have been a scheduling conflict for HGW, maybe he did THE MEG 2 instead. He also scored Fuqua's last two films, that seems like a more likely reason he's onboard this one.    Posted:   Aug 28, 2023 - 5:30 AM     By:   First Breath   (Member) Ah, ok. Not very familiar with Zarvos, but I have a feeling he doesn't quite fit in with the Remote Control-sound Fuqua always seemed to prefer through his career..?    Posted:   Aug 28, 2023 - 9:10 AM     By:   nuts_score   (Member) Ah, ok. Not very familiar with Zarvos, but I have a feeling he doesn't quite fit in with the Remote Control-sound Fuqua always seemed to prefer through his career..? Zarvos is a very non-descript, workmanlike composer who is going to be able to mold whatever sound is asked of him. If you listen to the scores for The Guilty and Emancipation, you'll hear that he is very capable of the music that Fuqua wants for his films (with maybe The Magnificent Seven being an outlier, perhaps the case can be made for Southpaw). I still hold Zarvos' score for Hollywoodland in high regard. It's almost 20 years old at this point but a very lyrical and jazzy neo-noir Drama score. I haven't really been invested in anything since, unfortunately although Sin Nombre got some steady rotations from me back when it came out.     General Discussion: Harry Gregson-Williams - The Equalizer 2 (2018)    < 1  >   Go to page:  1   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1
